I’m not sure who makes the bracket in @makinen ‘s 2nd link, but the author mentioned a 5mm drop. I think a stiffer spring is recommended in the first link because the subject car is on stock suspension, and lowering the rear 5mm on stock spring rates may cause one to excessively ride the bump stops.

“ The bracket is about 22mm before installation.
17mm after installation
I think it's because the angle of the rod has changed and the load on the suspension has increased.
Of course, I adjusted the car height to restore it.

After this, adjust the alignment again and it's done.”
